Vélo d'Or français

The Vélo d'Or français (French for "French Golden Bicycle") is a cycle racing award, created in 1992 by the French cycling magazine Vélo Magazine. Until 2023, the award was given to the French rider, male or female, considered to have performed the best over the year. Since 2025, this has been subdivided into two awards: the "Trophée Bernard Hinault" for male cyclists and the "Trophée Jeannie Longo" for female cyclists. An additional award for Paralympic cycling was introduced in 2024. These awards are presented at the same ceremony as the "Vélo d'Or", which is given to the best international rider.

Mountain biker Julien Absalon has the most awards, with four.
